Artwork details
“The first age of the world, Bxogonoa Ata, is called Unquyquienxie, or Unquynxie, which means “before all things.” Before this, there was nothing. At that moment, only Fihizca, the soul and breath of the Universe, existed, sleeping in the midst of darkness and silence. When Fihizca awoke, in its thought emerged Chiminigaghoa, the Grandiose Grandfather, and Bagüe, the Grandiose Creative Grandmother, the intangible one, who was thought, imagination, and the creative force of what was to come. Her thought transformed into action, creating the Makers, Doers and formers of the universe. After this, she gave them the command to begin creation of all that was, is and would be.”
